Carillon Sudokus
is the sonic counterpart to
Oog & Oor
(Eye & Ear), the last work that Dutch sound and visual artist
Paul Panhuysen
(1934-2015) realized.
Oog & Oor
was a design made with his daughter
Sappho Panhuysen
for a temporary installation in the lighted column of the Rietveld bus shelter next to the town hall of Eindhoven. It is a further development from
Eight Double Sudokus
, a series of large-scale prints exhibited at Museum De Pont in Tilburg in 2012. Both designs were created using sudoku puzzles and comprise various shapes of different colors whose structure was derived from the number sequences present in individual sudokus. Panhuysen used number systems such as magic squares, the Fibonacci series and the golden ratio in much of his art because he felt that instead of limiting his artistic freedom, such systems allowed him to make new discoveries and realize works that transcended his own imagination.
René van Peer
describes the composition in the liner notes: "
A system is evidently at work behind the order of colours and shapes in these prints. On the other hand it is far from obvious what the underlying order actually is. Coloured bands and arcs converge in a rhythmic play of lines. Some originate from the same point, joining to form a right angle or part of a circle. Others touch only at the point or remain loose ends in a wave of motion. The orderliness of the structure and the erratic behaviour of the straight and curved lines strive for predominance in the series.
" These principles can also be applied to pitch and musical phrases. For
Eight Double Sudokus
, Panhuysen composed eight pieces for piano that were heard during the exhibition. For
Oog & Oor
, he envisioned music for the carillon, a bell tower on the roof of the Eindhoven town hall. The original idea was to generate 365 sudoku-based pieces, one for each day of the year that the installation was to be shown. In the end, around 50 pieces were realized in collaboration with town carillonneur
Rosemarie Seuntiëns
. Side A of this LP contains 11 pieces played live by Seuntiëns on the ceremonial ending of
Oog & Oor
on August 28, 2015. Side B features 12 pieces played mechanically by the carillon. Comes in full-color gatefold sleeve with printed inner sleeve; Liner notes by René van Peer; Edition of 300.
